What you can expect when you choose feed the bear design:
.. casual, professional and discrete coverage of your day
.. a private, password-protected online gallery hosted on feedthebeardesign.com .. you can share the username & password with whomever you like, or keep it all to yourself - all up to you.
.. a digital archive (cd/dvd) of selected images. I’ll also keep an archive for myself so that (should you choose) you can easily order prints through me, assuring a certain level of continuity in quality in future print orders.
.. a custom dvd video slideshow of all of the selected images, each blending into the next, featuring music by Julia Cunningham (soulharp.com), an extraordinarily talented musician of whom I've grown quite fond. The slideshow runs for about an hour, more or less, based on the number of images involved, and is a lovely, simple way to pass some time with a bottle of wine and your feet up.
.. a hardbound, photo-archival-quality album (printed on Fujifilm Crystal Archive Papers) featuring 75-100 images of the clients' choice. Design & layout of the album will be simple and elegant - no cheesy templates that don't stand the test of time - letting the images speak for themselves. E-mail to arrange a meet to discuss the album details and to see a sample of a finished piece.
My main reason for including the album in the package is simple: in 20 years, who's to say anyone will be able to even access a DVD anymore? A wedding photo album should be treasured, recalling what is sure to be one of the most important days in your life together - I don't want to deprive anyone of that.
Some photographers provide only low-resolution files, insisting you do any printing through them, leaving you with no control, no flexibility, no freedom.
They’re YOUR images. I just happen to be the guy who saw them first.
